Grass Upon q Thousand Hills.

Sheriff o. P. Temrleton, Of Park
county, was interviewed by a Herald
reporter recently at Helena concern
ing the condition Of the stock inter.
ests of the Yellowstone valley and the
general appearance of the country this
spring. Mr.. Templeton said the deep
SHOWS and cold weather may be con-
sidered blessings In disguise, for as the
snow melted away and the ground
thawed out, which was frozen to an
unusual depth, the grass on q thou
sand hills is more abundant. greener
and nutritious than ever. The loss OF
stock which was confined to q great
extent to the pilgrim cattle, will not
be felt seriously for more than year
or two at most. In the first place, the
ranges have been thinned out 90. that

cattle remain. so that the additional

"The Great American Desert" bids

have already had the effect Of

den spots and never in the memory of

From all over the country come reports
Of this most fiattering state Of affairs
and here at our very doors the stretch
of green far as the eye can reach up
and down this beautiful valley Of the
Yellowstone betokens q speedy cessa-
tion of hard times. Every ranch man
great and small, is exulting over the
happy state Of affairs, and barring q
slight dimunition In the number OF
cattle grazing upon a thousand hill,
the prospect is bright, and after the
gloomy foreboding Of the effect Of the
winter losses, calls to everyone's mind
the quaint proverb that "every cloud
has silver lining" and 1t comes home
to us In its fullest application. The

throughout the southwest has an eye
upon Montana is generally conceded,
and that the ultimate outcome Of the
seasons plentiful grass crop will be
the rushing in next spring OF countless
thousands of young stock to all up the
vacant places on the ranges is equally
apparent. This jolly COW man says
that you may confidently expect next
spring 10 see every passenger train
bring in representative capitalists
looking for location; they will crowd
the hotels Of Miles City and In the
early sumer tie big drives will raise
the dust from The south. This is the
right view to take of the situation and

Regulating railroad Rates,

- l&E
Chicago. Feb. 16-The fact was made
evident to-day that it is not to be all
smooth with the western railroads in
getting into line with the interstate
commerce law. Through rates on south
western association lines have always
sean held up to q high point, and local
rateN as q whole kept in harmony, SO
that the southwestern freight agents
readily accommodated their freight tariff
to a new law. To-day. however, in the
general meeting of agents of the lines
running to Kansas City, Council Bluffs
and st. Paul, it was found that the case
was quite different with the two latter.
This was especially SO in regard to Iowa
local rates, which are much in excess of
through rates, and must be advanced
if the present avenue OF the roads is to be
preserved. To do this the Council Bluffs
lines desired the corporation Of the
Kansas City roads, asking that the last
mentioned should also advance their
through rates to help the Council Bluffs
roads out. A serious difference of opin.
ion at once arose. The lines having no
interests except in Kansas City business
emphaticaliy declined to pull their
neighbors' ehestnuts ont of the fire.
The most general opinion among officials
Tonight IS that the result will be that
each OF the three associations west Of
Chicago will be forced to interpret the
law dependent OF each other.

a Few plain Questions.

Sioux Falls Press: The Mitchell
Republican does no credit to itself when
it defends the action of the representa-
tives from that district in the attempt
TO force Reputation upon Sioux Fall. III
the combination had been made on the
bills to remove one court to Sioux Falls
and nj to Mitchell the cases would
have been equal; but az it was, it was q
most disreputable piece of basiness,and q
majority of the members of both houses
80 regarded it. What the Republican
says about the "record of Sioux Falls
for political scheming," about her TASK
ing for everything under the sun and
giving nothing in return" and about
her 'crawling in the dust before the
legislature and winning" is this sllliesi
kind of nonsense quite unworthy OF
the Republican. What Sioux Falls wanted
was the privilege of paying her debts
according to contract and this is what
the Mitchell combination refused to al
low, unless the Sioux Falls members
would do something for the benefit oil
Mitchell which it was supposed they
would not otherwise do. Sioux Fails
has one or two men who have become
femons in Dakota politics, but can the
Republican make good Its loosely made
assertions? What combinations has
Sioux Falls made? What trades
What has she received. and what has
she refused to 81 We to others?
